The humanitarian situation in Gaza has deteriorated severely, with children reportedly too weak to cry or speak due to starvation, according to the president of the international charity Save the Children. Aid groups have described Gaza's clinics as silent because the children lack the strength even to cry. The head of the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) acknowledged that while more food aid is reaching Gaza, it remains insufficient to prevent widespread starvation. During a recent visit to Gaza, the head of the UN food agency observed a clear shortage of food and discussed the urgent need for increased aid with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Additionally, a hostage survivor testified before the UN Security Council about experiences of rape and starvation while in Hamas captivity. The UN food agency chief emphasized that women and children in Gaza are starving, underscoring the critical humanitarian crisis in the region.
